Product Highlights

  • Written not only for students but also for today's preachers
  • A powerful approach to expository preaching

"This book is in honor of Haddon Robinson- for his numerous contributions to the field of homiletics, the fruit of which is known fully only by the men and women who sit week after week in padded pews. All of us who have contributed to this book present it as a token of our sincere appreciation for what we have learned from him. We count it a great privilege to call him 'mentor', 'colleague', and 'friend.'


Haddon Robinson has influenced generations of students and preachers through his widely used classic text, Biblical Preaching, in which he shows preachers how to communicate the Bible's big ideas with precision. But does Robinson's 'big-idea' approach to expository preaching still work in today's diverse cultures and fast-paced world?

The Big Idea of Biblical Preaching presents a strong defense of the ongoing relevance of this approach to expository preaching. An experienced and skilled group of contributors to this volume includes:

  • Paul Borden
  • Scott M. Gibson
  • Duane Litfin
  • Terry Mattingly
  • John Reed
  • Bruce L. Shelley
  • Donald R. Sunukjian
  • Joseph M. Stowell III
  • Bruce K. Waltke
  • Scott Wenig
  • Keith Wilhite
